gaz mate,. im not sure of either :oops: i dunno about the tints on there, they dont look quite right, but the reds look a bit too red and cheezy if u know what i mean,.

a darker shade all red may be a nicer option :?

think the standard lights look best IMO

I'm not a fan of tinted lights (smoked, all red or otherwise)

so i voted to keep it real :cool:

its your car though, and damn clean too-so have it whatever way you like and keep up the good work!!!!

Upon looking at this thread again, they've grown on me and I really like them. I think you should get them. They look to have a slight purple tint to them which matches your car pretty well.

Looks good with the hard top too!!

I've just taken a set of smoked rear lenses off my recently acquired M3 Europameister.

I've put the originals back on but if somebody wants a set of smoked lenses which are as new and still in the box pm me

Look better with them on, but still not quite right.
